- Description: Metis is a 13 years old girl who lives in a place where everyone in the region believes that their only mission for life is to build strong controlling water abilities. However, Metis does not like that. She does not have any water-controlling capabilities. Her only hobby is reading. Unsurprisingly, she is regarded as a stranger in the town, and no one likes her.
- Story: People in Metis’ town can use gestures to control water flows. To them, water is more like a tool. Of course, in certain situations, water could also be their weapon. However, Metis, unlike others, do not find this tradition to be much interesting. Instead of following what everyone else does, she falls in love with reading and learning since she was a child. In our words, she is a bookworm. And she is much gifted as well. She reads extremely fast. Maybe a scanner could compete with her. Moreover, she can remember anything she has seen. Either the face of someone or some chapter content she has learned. People in her town view her as a stranger, and all exclude her from the big group. They all think that building up well water controlling abilities is the only thing they should do. Nothing else is on their mind. Learning to read sounds ridiculous to them. None of them could imagine that there is a bigger world out there. As time goes on, their place is no longer suitable for living. So they decided they have to move to another location. Of course, somewhere that has clean water. But which location would be the best for them? They do not even know how big the world is. How can they know how to pick their location? Metis walks up and tells them that she knows where they should go. At first, they did not want to trust her. But they got no other choice. No one else in the town has more exposure to the outside world than Metis. They then decided to give her a chance agreeing that she has to move first and follow afterward. With her knowledge, they then quickly picked a place.
